I also noticed the similarity right away.  However, although I feel that
this was a very poor choice on the part of the artist, I don't think that it
breaks the rules.  The artist seems to indicate that the image was re-done
completely from scratch.  Only a review of the source code for the two
images could confirm or deny that.  If much of the image components are
re-used, than this would definatly be bad.  But, if the image is a
completely new image, then I don't see a problem, other than the fact that
we've seen it before so now the "concept" is less interesting.
